Tennis racket study

Practice drawing tennis racket with clear contours and a few selected details. Join the frame to a forked neck and a straight wrapped handle. Add a sparse string grid and a few handle bands.

A way into the drawing

1. Start with the main forms

   Draw a tilted oval and echo it with an inner frame curve.

2. Build the overlaps

   Join the frame to a forked neck and a straight wrapped handle.

3. Choose the finishing details

   Add a sparse string grid and a few handle bands.

A small thing to tryMake the string spacing follow the oval rather than filling the head with dense lines.
